USB Gadget Gone Green


Most of us encounter technology on a regular basis whether at home, school or the workplace. We employ this technology to enhance our lives or so we seem to believe.

What the world needs to understand is that with the advancement of technology comes the issue of polluting the world we all live in.

In efforts to change the patterns of the technological advancement cycle, companies are producing innovative technologies which are becoming key ingredients in the recipe to saving our planet.

Here a gadget doing their part to protect our fragile environment is the first ever enviro friendly USB Drive, the ATP EarthDrive .

This particular product is made up of Bio-recycled material such as corn. Its storage capacities run from 1 GB to 8GB and although a wee bit pricey (from $29.99 to $99.99), ATP in collaboration with American Forests, donates a portion of the price of every EarthDrive sold to be allocated for tree-planting projects.

This storage device is tough being shockproof, waterproof and dustproof to boot.

To follow through on being even more environmentally friendly, the EarthDrive packaging is also made of recycled paper and recyclable materials.

Whether your passionate about bringing green to your technology world or your just simply in need of a durable and reliable usb drive, the EarthDrive is something to be considered for sure. (Buy here .)
